Minor PeeWee '97, 2009 (Maitland PEP Ice Sharks AAA Spring Hockey)

The ’97 Ice Sharks started out their Spring tournament schedule with an impressive weekend at the Regional Express tournament, making it to the finals.Hard work, strong goaltending, and a commitment to be defensively responsible, were the keys to getting through the round robin and semi-finals.

The Ice Sharks showed up in St. Mary's on April-18th with 11 skaters, but managed to start the season off with a 4-3 win, over the Thunder. While it wasn't an overly physical game, the refs seemed to think the Sharks were guilty of many infractions early in the game, with 3 straight penalties. The Thunder capitalized with 2 power-play goals. The Sharks capitalized on a power-play of their own in the third, to tie the game. Then scored the game winner on a pretty passing play, with only a couple minutes to play.
